What is a female? A Female is depicted by others everyday all day long all over the world. Does anyone anywhere even know who or what a female is anymore? Does a female even know who she is? Ask her – she will tell you who she is to someone else no doubt! Lately it has become vogue to brag about being a mother. ‘As a Mom’, ‘Proud to be a Mom’, ‘A Million Moms’. Smart Girls, New Women , W.O.W. and RightGirl for example.

I am one of those and I belong to most of those online groups and darn happy to be a mom a grandma and a great grandma and proud to belong to any and all of the mom groups as well. I asked a conservative friend where she stood on the Paycheck Fairness Act and she wasn’t sure. She is pretty high up in the organization and the group had just send out an alert to all the members urging them to call their senators immediately and demand they vote NO. I followed the links and found Michelle Malkin spewing some downright lies and truthfully I am not sure many of these Smart Girls even bothered to question her facts before they dutifully phoned their Senators to vote NO! Michelle told them their Liberal sisters wanted it so – it must be bad! I asked my friend what she thought and she responded

“My agenda is not women! My agenda is country! Everything else at this moment has to looked at through by me through that prism.”

My reply is for another writing but most conservative women feel just the same! As if WOMEN just don’t matter! As if America’s issues are not our issues- our children do not die, our jobs are not lost, we do not lose our homes , we do not go to war, we do not get hungry, we are persona non gratta! More later! Back to the original article.

I am also a US citizen and proud to be one – and a wife and proud to be one a daughter and proud to be one but I am ultimately a female and when I take away all the other labels –I remain far and away a female. I need to know that as one of 52% of civilization – and of all of the population I am something unique unto myself as well as a part of something and someone else! How many of us unique females have no children, husband, siblings or parents alive. What does that make us– nothings?

I dare say we had damned well better wake up and recognize that we are so much more than someone else’s something, subordinate only to them. As proud as we are to be part of a family, a marriage, and as parents we have forgotten we are in the end individuals.

If you are a God fearing individual- God made you in his image – you are responsible to him for what you do about you too. As females we are the majority on this earth and as such we have a responsibility to be lights and good stewards and responsible to teach our daughters and our sons by example. That example is not to turn away from what is wrong but to turn against it. The time is now! There is a war on woman all across this world and it is up to every woman to stand up and say NO! Sadly we spend less time on the community of women and to helping each other which would strengthen our causes. Indeed it takes a village and yet we fight against other never realizing we are our best warriors. Think again!

It is up to women to teach our sons and daughters that females are to be highly respected and accepted just as we are! We are not second class citizens- not here – not anywhere around the world – let’s stand up and start acting like it! We are woman first – no black- not Hispanic – not someone’s wife or daughter first – to our own selves we need to be true!

Ask yourself what is a female-?

Look at your daughters – ask what a female is? When you look at your little girl – do you airbrush her perfect? Doesn’t she deserve to be a first class human being or are you raising her to be someone’s something? When you see a report of a wife missing or found dead at the hand of her husband – do you realize that could be your daughter you gave to a husband in marriage? Do you think those parents ever dreamed this horror? In many religions man are raised to treat their women this way and it is coming here. We are faced with two extremes – Sexualization or Religion both make render her less than! Neither is acceptable and you have no right to decide for your daughters!

4-5 women a day are murdered by their husbands in the US1 in 4 women a day are beaten – only half are reported so 1-2 are feared to be harmed1 in 4 college women experience completed or attempted rape during their college years

100,000’s a day have a Tiger Woods for a husbandOver 50% of men accessing the internet are using internet pornography on purposeInternet Porn is the fasting growing cause of divorce in the United States

WHY? Because we women have not stood up and said NO! We have hidden our eyes from the truth! Women in our society are disrespected and we can stop it now!

1.) Jessica Alba

Have you wondered how some celebrities manage to keep their seemingly perfect figures after pregnancy? Is it the personal trainers and private chefs that do the trick? Not entirely or perhaps not at all. It’s the air brusher! The real Jessica Alba , months after giving birth, is seen airbrushed, note the trimmed waistline and hips.

Although denies any retouching was done for her 2008 Vanity Fair photo shoot, a professional air brusher interviewed by the Daily Mail disagrees: “There is no real detail in her face. Any detail or wrinkles have been removed. There are no eye bags, contours and smile lines. Her bottom has been rounded off so it looks nice and pert. I would be very surprised if her bottom was like that naturally.”

The Redbook editors plucked Roberts head from a paparazzi shot taken at the 2002 People’s Choice Awards while her body was borrowed from the Notting Hill movie premiere four years ago. The clipped-together photo is accompanied by a headline that blares, without a trace of irony, “The Real Julia.”

6.) Jennifer Aniston

Wish you could have washboard abs like Jennifer Aniston after the age of 40? America’s favorite Friend does as well. When asked by host Barbara Walters what happened to the modest girl next door we used to love, Jen laughed, “She’s there! Photo shopped!”

7.) Sarah Palin

The body belongs to a 22 year-old woman known only as Elizabeth. An unemployed web site designer from New York City found the four year old pic on Flickr and pasted Gov. Palin’s head on it as a spoof for her FaceBook page. And the rest has become as much a part of political yore as Swift Boat and Dukakis in a tank.

8.) Kelly Clarkson

Apparently Kelly Clarkson grew tired of Howard Stern making cracks about her ass and did something about it, or shall I say had her air brusher do something about it.

The airbrushing later became so pronounced on her new album cover that Clarkson barely recognized herself. On a blog entry she wrote: “It’s very colorful and they have definitely Photo shopped the crap out of me . . . Whoever she is, she looks great, ha!”

9.) The Women of the Israeli Cabinet

In a move straight out of Pravda, the Israeli ultra-Orthodox newspaper Yated Neeman airbrushed two female cabinet members out of a picture of the Israeli Cabinet and replaced them with two men not even in the cabinet. The newspaper claims picturing women violates their laws of modesty but here in the States it simply violates our laws of common decency.

10.) The Dove Soap Women

Remember the Dove Soap campaign featuring “real”, full-figured women instead of the airbrushed, fake supermodels we’ve grown so accustomed to? Even when Madison Avenue ad executives try to keep it real, their itchy airbrush fingers get the best of them.

According to retoucher Pascal Dangin, these ladies were just as fake as the supermodels we so love to poke fun at. “Do you know how much retouching was on that?” he asked. “But it was great to do, a challenge, to keep everyone’s skin and faces showing the mileage but not looking unattractive.”

Gentlemen, next time your lady tells you the Hollywood ideal of beauty is impossible to live up to, believe her. And Ladies next time you think only a trollop posses for these things – think of the Israeli Cabinet members who disappeared.

Please do not write me comments about the women who pose for these- it is easy to blame women and leave the men blameless or to blame men but the truth is this: Sex sells because we have been selling women forever. For all of history we have been selling women- there are more of us then there are of them – let’s just stand up and stop it now when and where we can! Start with the advertisers. ‘Boycott them one at a time money talks! Start with Calvin Klein – let take him ass out of business and see how fast the others get the message!

What is a Female – do you know? How will you explain it to your 3 year old? Do you want to tell her she must grow up to be a mother even if her body will never make her one? Do you want to teach her to submit to a man who may beat her to death? Do you want to teach your 3 year old boy to believe what his lying eyes tell him to believe? She is not what he thinks she is – she is not what you think she is either!

She is a total work of art- she is every bit as valuable as the son you may have bore — act like it- fight for her right to be treated as the whole – human being she is! Do it now!

Oh and if women is not on your agenda – you damned well better pencil her in- she is the majority. She is valuable and she is God’s best work!
